hooray for beer -
That's my bro and sis in law next to the drunk guy. They have the circle us sign, and broken bobble head.
-
Also he reports that as of 10 mins ago it was still raining fairly hard

My brother reports from the park that brewer fans have instead chosen to sign roll out the barrel at the top of their lungs.

http://www.todaystmj4.com...assignment/50975047.html This will make you root for casey even more. Watch the video and also try to be at the park in time for the Mack's first pitch on July 29

Nothing a manager can do makes me madder than letting a high pitch count guy bat and then when 1 baserunner gets on pull him. I hope Manny keeps Macha in the dugout

Top 5 most annoying radio commercials
brucrustu replied to milwaukeesportsfan's topic in Off-Topic Forum
"mesh is the new mesh" is my favorite line from a commercial in some time. Also I have no venom for Kessler's, seems fairly dismissable to me. The worst has been mentioned and that is the dumb guy and "Bernard" the personal injury lawyer. Absolutely the WORST series of commercials ever. I think they even had dumb guy wife for a while. O man that was horrid. -
Suggestions for a dying transmission
brucrustu replied to Brian the Automator's topic in Off-Topic Forum
The shop I mentioned rebuilt the transmission in the ford f-350 dual rear wheel work truck I use to haul a big cattle trailer for $1500. Little car rebuild I would guess $800 but that's just a stab in the dark. It would be rebuilt not a junker ready to fail again. -
The Maniac was in the house tonight sporting a cheese top hat. And enjoying, new to me, Fridays beer garden band HoiPoiLive.com or something like that. They were ok considering the circumstance. Halfway between boo and hadley I would say. No over 30 high fives only pats on the back with the knowledge that a new day dawns tomorrow.

Suggestions for a dying transmission
brucrustu replied to Brian the Automator's topic in Off-Topic Forum
There is a small shop that looks like a farm West of Wern Valley pheasant farm. Thats West of town on 59 and the first right after the generac plant then he's on the west side of the road with yellowish buildings. They are good and VERY inexpensive. I can get you the phone number if needed. I forget the name of the place too, but I have a friend who drives a tow truck and he hauls lots of stuff up there. -
I agree that Boo is not great, only better than Hadley in this specific circumstance. The headset is less laughable than the front man of the Toys( or is it the Sweet Tarts) who sported a waist mounted electric drumming pad for a set at the last show I attended. A rockin polka band may sound good but I don't see much broad appeal to the after the game, waiting for traffic to clear crowd. I think the perfect band in this spot is upbeat and plays popish "classics". I think its in a way like friends re-runs, not too many people hate it. House or CSI might be better but appeal to a smaller demographic. The people I observe are looking to sing along and dance or lean on a table and enjoy their drink as long as the music is passable. Back to the topic I'll look for the Maniac after the game tonight. He and I usually exchange a beer garden, over 30 "high five" after weekend brewer wins. Also his jersey reads "The Maniac" can't remeber the number, maybe 97?

The Maniac was dancing at the post game Hadley concert 2 weekends ago. I think it was Saturday. If it's a weekend game he is always at the post game shows outside fridays. I can usually be found there as well. He is usually "dancing" while my girlfriend and I usually take up residence at one of the barrel tables towards the back. On an off topic note. Will Hadley be back this weekend? Last weekend they proclaimed "Alot of people don't want us here because we're too loud and (expletive), but we're gonna (expletive) rock this (expletive) any way." maybe not the direct quote but close. Personally I prefer Boo the Band for that environment anyway. I also have said that West Allis' own "Shag" (www.shagmilwaukee.com I think) would be a good fit in that spot as well. Both are more up beat and danceable than the semi heavy Hadley. I haven't noticed super brewer this whole year.

My girlfriend was the twc triple trivia contestant. She claims she knew the answer was Seth, and only looked back at me to verify. The free month of road runner justified the 3 hours of muggginess. It's funny because we were just talking about this contest in the chat a week or so ago. If you had time warner I'd totally send the voucher to you Hawing, because I know you'd do the same for me. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Mariners Sign Russell Branyan (1 Year Deal)
brucrustu replied to ttsather's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
At last nights game I told the lady next to me to vote 3to in the all star ballot. She was against the idea, "Who is he?". I had to look away in horror. 2 innings later, she goes "Is that like Russel Branyan that played for the Brewers?" Um Yeah -
intimidated by jj's great speed. Also the worst part of the farm and fleet commercial is Matt's son "How bout some licorice" YES Braunie

Last night (friday) was tons of fun. A lot more people and cars than I expected. The parking lot lady told me around 250 presold and over 100 drive-ups. It looked like loads of people tailgated and listened to the game before the movie started. I arrived after anchorman started, but was able to get a decent spot to watch. Try to be straight on or you will have a support cable in your view. I was parked way over by the sausage haus, and I never really got used to that cable. The screen is on an inflatable frame. When the wind kicked up late in the evening jaws took on a look similar to the "fish eye cam" they sometimes use at the ball park. If you're staying for both it sure does get late. I enjoyed a nice nap during the mid portion of jaws. Still and all, lots of fun.

He should also be allowed to take a walk after only 3 balls. No wait he has.How disrespectful of the game.
-
At least one game last week "sabatage" by the Beastie Boys was part of the opening routine. This was great. Now they just need Braun and Fielder in fake mustaches racing an unmarked to the ball park. Where's the best hill they could jump? Way cooler than that dancing cell phone girl.

Sorry for repeat posts but this is it's own point. He didn't catch that ball in the Tundra Territory. There is one row of seating in front of the tundra territory that is 100 level bleacher handicapped seating. I've sat in the TT and talked to the usher there about the seats. So while he didn't "grab a little girl by her pigtails." He did hammer past people sitting in a one row handicapped section. (Edit: brucrustu asked to add the following to his post. Rather than reopen the thread, I offered to post it for him - hawing)

1. I think dude is loving the attention. I'm not clicking on his blog because I'm sure the views count will soon be a bragging point.2.Nothing like ripping a large group of members on the board I bet 90% of us could have answered that. Didn't think so? come off it 3.Being a cop doesn't make you a good guy in and of itself. There are plenty of cops that became one just for the sense of entitlement. 4.I don't think any one came even close to this and one poster admitted when he saw hy knock someone down it may have been inadvertant 5. Pretty much irrelavant in a thread concentrating on him not keeping or sharing a ball. I admit the guy rubs me the wrong way. I dislike many of his tactics during game play. Buy a bleacher seat, sit in it, wear Brewers gear, and don't steal stuff when the ushers aren't looking. Then I'll listen to what a nice fellow with an unusual hobby he is.

Weather.com has partly cloudy until 9 pm then 60% chance of storms as the night wears on. Hope for fast paced action with yo on the hill.

I think the better picture would be of Macha standing at the corner of the dug out holding his hand up for a high five as Braun walks by high fiving his team mates. Macha held it up there for like 15 seconds even after Braun was like ten steps away. Funniest moment of the year if you ask me. Also Braun hits balls so hard it rips guys joints apart. WOW!
-
My girlfriend said that it was so loud it was starting to distort on the club level. She said if you didn't know what it was you would not have recognized it. Personally; the louder the better.
-
The people who work at the brewery and it's companion industries would disagree. I attend loads of games but rarely am I early enough to tailgate. So whatever I can grab in the park. The new left feild loge bar has C- on tap. I usually grab one on those on the way up to the terrace.

Is it time to send Nelson to AAA for some AB's
brucrustu replied to fondybrewfan's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Why can he become a FA? Is there a number of times DFA'd rule or is it service time? The big unit on am 620 was promoting calling up Gamel and Escobar to replace Nelson and Hardy because they "aren't getting it done". When I called in to argue that this is a dumb stance because Hardy is a top five short stop that is slumping and Nelson could become a FA, the call screener told me that they knew Nelson would be DFA'd but he would clear waivers and be forced to report to AAA. I said I thought he could be a FA and the call screener became agitated and sort of yelled at me then hung up on me. (bcs looks at bill and his call screener) You two do this for a living!? Jeez. And all of that without me mentioning how insane it is to promote on the biggest am radio station in the state that Escobar should replace Hardy due to lack of OFFENSIVE production.
